6 Everyware Software Framework (ESF) What is ESF? ESF is a Java/OSGi-based Application Framework for M2M Service Gateways and Edge Nodes that simplifies the design, deployment and remote management of embedded applications. Cohesive and integrated app environment Modular software components HW abstraction layer Field protocol libraries Cloud connectivity Remote app and device management Local app and device management Built-in Security Development tools Customer App Java/OSGi Linux OS Derived from ESF, Kura is an open source Java/OSGi-based Application Framework for M2M Gateways, part of the IoT Projects of the Eclipse Foundation

7 KURA What is Kura? Modular software for IoT Gateway Service Manage cloud connectivity Network configuration and administration Support for different protocols Remote management and access Integrated development environment Application portability Open sourced in Eclipse IoT Embedded App Java / OSGi Linux OS Open HW Industrial HW Based on Kura, ESF is commercially supported, remotely managed, and optimized for industrial gateways and applications.

8 ESF vs Kura What ESF offers beyond Kura ESF is leveraging the Kura implementation, but adds some important elements : ESF is commercially supported by Eurotech and does contain a genuine Java VM (Oracle) Eurotech certifies a fully supported java/osgi/esf stack; we do the release validation and testing on the Eurotech and other 3 rd party devices On supported devices ESF comes pre-installed, configured and tuned A VPN service is available as a standard bundle of ESF. A VPN server is available as part of EC to provide on-demand VPN service between server-side app and devices. ESF contains more field protocols that are outside the scope of Kura ESF enables remote Device Diagnostics via Everyware Cloud ESF enables remote Device Provisioning (remote software upload) via Everyware Cloud ESF will include or be integrated with advanced app design tools like: Oracle Event Processing tool integrated BitReactive (they made a prototype on top of Kura) ESF can be integrated by Eurotech with 3 parties (Eurotech partners) sw tools/platforms

9 ESF, KURA & Paho What ESF & KURA offers beyond the Paho MQTT Client ESF adopts the MQTT Paho implementation and adds some important features : Data Services: Manages remote connectivity and reconnect policies Manages message queuing with priority Manages message store while disconnected and resume publishing on reconnects Operates on an abstracted transport protocol Cloud Services: Data model for telemetry applications Topic partitioning across applications Compression Birth, Death & App certificates Request and Response message exchanges Simplified code for remote resource management
